Triage Center as a Response to Fentanyl Crisis

A new triage center has been established in San Francisco's South of Market area to address the fentanyl crisis and provide support for individuals struggling with drug addiction. This center features several tents offering services such as food, coffee, and direction to basic city resources. Service providers, including the Department of Public Health, are present to assist individuals by connecting them to necessary benefits and shelter while helping them navigate available city services. Despite its intention to support those in need, some visitors still express uncertainty about obtaining the help they seek and continue facing the challenges of homelessness.
